A.5.1 Extracting the Files

Your files may be delivered either on a CD-ROM or on tape. For CD-ROM installation, mount the installation CD -ROM in the CD-ROM drive. Change to the mount directory and type:

./install

Then follow the directions on the "Getting Started" card included with your software to load the products in the appropriate directories.

If you have received a tape, ACUCOBOL-GT is shipped using either TAR or CPIO format, depending on the target machine. The media label shows which format is used, along with any other pertinent information. You should move to a directory on your machine created to hold ACUCOBOL-GT and then type one of the following commands depending on the archive type:

tar xfv device

or

cpio -icvBd < device

In either case, device is the appropriate hardware device name (for example, "/dev/rfd0" or "/dev/rmt0").
